I'm Easy  -  Keith Carradine (from the 1975 movie 'Nashville')


Intro
Cmaj7 – 4 measures

Verse 1
NC          Dm7            G                  Cmaj7     C 
It's not my way to love you just when no one's lookin'. 
            Dm7             G               Cmaj7     C
It's not my way to take your hand if I'm not sure.  
            Dm7           G 
It's not my way to let you see,
             Cmaj7       Am7 
what's going on inside of me.  
              Dm7                                 G      NC
When it's the love you won't be needing you're not free.    

Verse 2
Please stop pulling at my sleeve if you're just playin'.  
If you won't take the things you make me want to give.  
I never cared too much for games,  
and this one's drivin' me insane.  
You're not half as free to wander as you claim.  

Chorus 1
        C 
But I'm easy.  
         Dm7
Yeah I'm easy.  
         Em7 
Give the word,  I'll play your game,  
                 F               G 
as though that's how it ought to be.
            C     Cmaj7
because I'm easy.   

Verse 3
Don't lead me on if there's no where for you to take me.  
If lovin' you would have to be a sometime thing.  
I can't put bars on my inside,  
my love is something I can't hide.  
It still hurts when I recall the times I've tried.  

Chorus 2
        C 
But I'm easy.
         Dm7
Yeah I'm easy.  
        Em7 
Take my hand and pull me down.  
  F                G 
I won't put up any fight,
            C     Cmaj7
because I'm easy.  

Verse 4
Don't do me favors let me watch you from a distance.  
Cause when you're near I find it hard to keep my head.  
When your eyes throw light at mine,  
it's enough to change my mind.  
Make me leave my cautious words and ways behind.  

Outro Chorus
               C              Dm7 
That's why I'm easy, yeah I'm easy.  
        Em7 
Say you want me I'll come running.  
        F              G 
Without taking time to think.
            C              Dm7 
because I'm easy, Yeah I'm easy.  
        Em7 
Take my hand and pull me down.  
  F                G 
I won't put up any fight
            C              Dm7 
because I'm easy, Yeah I'm easy.  
         Em7 
Give the word,  I'll play your game.  
                 F               G
As though that's how it ought to be
            Cmaj7 
because I'm easy.
